Our Story

We are committed to providing high quality affordable elevator service and repair.

At Arctic Elevator Company, we have already identified the problem with most elevators, neglect. Are your elevators still shutting down, trapping passengers, or perhaps they seem old and neglected, squeaking, vibrating and stopping hard?

Arctic Elevator will return your elevator to like new condition and keep it that way.

This is something we take pride in.
